Delos Tickets — Skip-the-Line Timed Entry

Full admission to the Archaeological Site of Delos and its on-island museum · your chosen date and hourly slot

Reserve my entry

This is full admission to the Archaeological Site of Delos — the Sanctuary of Apollo, the Terrace of the Lions, the mosaic houses such as the House of Cleopatra, the ancient theatre and Mount Kynthos — together with the Archaeological Museum of Delos on the island. We reserve your entry for the single date and hourly slot you choose and send it to your phone, so you step off the boat from Mykonos and walk straight past the ticket-office queue to the gate. The boat crossing is arranged separately by you.

What's included

Every booking includes the elements below — handled by our concierge team before your visit and confirmed at the island gate.

• Delos entry — the full archaeological island: the Sanctuary of Apollo, the Terrace of the Lions, the mosaic houses, the ancient theatre and the slopes of Mount Kynthos • Archaeological Museum of Delos — on the island and included in the ticket • Timed-entry ticket — reserved for the date and hourly slot you choose • 5-minute audio history sent before your visit • Booking handled in your own language The boat crossing from Mykonos is not included and is arranged separately by you.

Who this is for

This is standard full admission, ideal for independent travellers visiting Delos from Mykonos who want to skip the on-the-day queue at the jetty and have the ticketing handled. The standard ticket needs no passport or name. The operator sets its own reduced and free categories (for example for children and certain EU visitors), which may require ID at the gate — contact our team if you think one applies to you. Remember that the ticket covers island admission only; the boat crossing from Mykonos is booked separately, and the island is seasonal and normally closed on Mondays.

On the day

Delos is reached only by boat from Mykonos, a crossing of about 30 to 45 minutes from the Old Port, with sailings mostly in the morning and returns in the early afternoon — so time your boat to land within your booked hour. Show your mobile ticket at the island gate, then walk the Sanctuary of Apollo, the Terrace of the Lions and the mosaic houses before the cruise groups arrive, and finish in the on-island museum. It's an open, shadeless island, so bring a hat, sunscreen, water and sturdy shoes, and allow the two to three hours the boat schedule gives you. Keep a close eye on your return sailing, and add the theatre and Mount Kynthos only if you have taken an early boat.

Frequently asked

Is my ticket valid any time?
It's a timed-entry ticket — you choose your date and hourly slot when you book and we reserve that slot for you, shown on your ticket. Match it to a boat from Mykonos that lands you within that hour. Entry is valid for a single admission during that slot.
Does it include the boat from Mykonos?
No. The ticket is admission to Delos island only. You arrange the boat crossing separately, and we set your timed island entry to match your chosen sailing so you go straight to the gate on landing.
Is it skip-the-line?
Your entry is reserved before you arrive, so you go straight to the island gate instead of queuing at the ticket office on the jetty when the boats land.
Is the island museum included?
Yes — the Archaeological Museum of Delos is on the island and covered by your ticket, and it shelters the original Terrace lions. It also offers the island's one substantial patch of shade.
How long should I allow?
About two to three hours on the island — the window the boat schedule usually gives — for the ruins and the museum, plus the round-trip crossing from Mykonos. Take an early boat if you also want to climb to the theatre and Mount Kynthos.
